Week 13

The Christmas story often had angels announcing great things. Help these angels get Galatians 4:4 right when they visit some shepherds in this game.

People waited for *sooo long* for the One God said would come. The wait was almost over! Watch our Bible story told in this video: "The Angel Gabriel Visits Mary".

Do you remember that Mr. Jon was LATE for GROW and we had to wait for him? He said he was making us a paper Christmas tree, and he showed it to us, with a light underneath it to light it up and make it beautiful.

Maybe you would like to make the same kind of paper tree! Here are some instructions that you can follow. It's a little like making a paper snowflake (like we did LAST week), but the folding is a bit different, so be sure to follow the instructions carefully for the best results.

¡Feliz Navidad! (That's "Merry Christmas" in Spanish!) We found out that the Operation Christmas Child shoeboxes you packed are headed to Central and South America where many children speak Spanish! This week, please pray to God for the child who will receive your shoebox, that God would give them a Merry Christmas and would help him or her to learn more about Jesus. Do you think that they have a Wednesday night children's program where they can learn more about Jesus and His love for us?

Samaritan's Purse made a fun kid's video about a stuffed lion and a girl named Lola who receives him in a shoebox. It is not real of course, but what is real is that there are many kids who live a lot like Lola does in the story.
